Every month in France, more than 500 people die in car crashes...What do you think it is, god? Bad cars? Government attempts to reduce the population?

Just human machines, human beeings...

yea i guess. human beings need to make safer planes and not waste billions on military aircraft.

Murphy's Law.

I'm amazed planes are as safe as they are. Cars stall all the time. If a plane stalls, you're dead!

If drivers did a full technical inspection of their car before every drive, and had a long expensive car-driving education, you'd probably see similar results for cars

uhm yeah, and that's what? 1/20th of commercial flight school? People sell their homes to fulfill that dream.

please remember, that most commercial pilots are former military jet pilots. Anything they face on an airliner, is bits compared to the hairy nature of military flying.

To me, this stinks of a cover up. I cant say what. I dont think its shoot downs because of terrorists...thats really a red herring. Its far more likely that there were important people on those planes.

4 crashes in 2 weeks is unprecedented...that is nothing to flake off as human error.

in regards to the first poll option, i arrived in australia the day that http://news.bbc.co.uk/onthisday/hi/date ... 678707.stm happened. We were going to get on this flight but took a flight from Iran>Japan>Australia instead of Iran > Dubai > Southeast asia> Australia..

we were talkin about this in pub earlier - tis indeed a high frequency of crashes .. but maybe thats just one of those things

my bro is convinced that low cost airlines are to blame - more planes than ever and not enough good engineers and technicians ...

so standards slip and eventually ppl die - which seems to be the case for sure with the helios plane thatsuffered a decompression malfunction some months earlier

which they say was fixed..

remember the plane that crashed in pennsylvania (it was supposedly going to the white house) on 9/11. the story was that people tried to fight the terrorists on board, and this led to the crash. but many are saying military jets shot them down because they belived it was heading to the white house. hmmm
